Jesus Departs as Oppenheim Soars!

Pot Limit Omaha

Catching the action on a flop of {3-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}, Chris Ferguson led out for 45,000 before Oppenheim raised the bet to a total of 157,500. Ferguson thought for a moment before moving all in for around 400,000 as Oppenheim quickly called.

Ferguson: {10-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{9-Spades}{Q-Spades}
Oppenheim: {8-Spades}{6-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{7-Hearts}

"Queen-high..." sighed Ferguson as he tabled his cards, although his draw was a powerful one with straight and flush possibilities. However Oppenheim's two pair improved to a full house on the {8-Hearts} turn to leave Ferguson needing a miracle one-outer river to stay alive. It wasn't to be, as the {A-Spades} fell to eliminate "Jesus" and catapult Oppenheim up to a tournament-leading 2.25 million in chips!

With that elimination the players will now redraw for the final three tables of play!
